Please create a stable branch
psentee opened this issue · 1 comments
In my flake.nix, I want to follow latest releases, but not necessarily integration branch.
It would be helpful to have a latest or stable branch that just points to the newest release – then, nix flake update would just pick up the released changes without pulling in ongoing development.
If you plan to maintain 2.x after 3.x release, a major release branch (like latest-2.x, latest-3.x`) would also be helpful.
Thank you!
We do not have plans to maintain older versions. I usually keep releases small and do not intend to merge features that are not finished. I think a better way to follow releases of nix-direnv is to use it from nixpkgs itself. Having a stable branch is overhead that I currently don't see the enough value for.
